Assertion (A): The major products formed by heating compound (A) in Q. No. 1 above with excess HI are:

Reason (R ): ArSN reaction takes place if the ring is activated by EW (e.g., `(-NO_(2)` group), at o-, p-, and m-position.

A

If both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is the correct explanation of (A).

B

If both (A) and (R ) are true but (R ) is not the correct explanation of (A).

C

If (A) is true but (R ) is false.

D

If both (A) and (R ) are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

(A) is true but (R ) is false. ArSN reaction takes place if the ring is activated by EW `(e.g., -NO_(2))` group only at o- and p-positions and not at m-position.
